Chicory (Cichorium intybus) is a striking wildflower on display in the late summer and early fall. It is a common roadside weed that prefers stony, poor soil and is therefore suited for this neighborhood.
Chicory is found all over the globe and is useful as a coffee substitute or extender. The color is a bright blue, light purple and sometimes pink. We have the blue and pink flowers growing along the dam at our cabin pond.
